Dear Tubman Families,

We're excited to share some wonderful news and upcoming events with you!

We are incredibly proud to announce that the Friends of Tubman "I ❤️Tubman" Pledge Drive was a success! Thanks to the generosity of all donors, a total of $76,751 was raised. This incredible support will make a real difference for our students and school. A selection of the 150 "I ❤️Tubman" hearts submitted by students sharing what they love most about our school will be on display on a banner in the 1st floor hallway. A huge thank you to Friends of Tubman and every single donor who contributed! Your support is deeply appreciated.

Congratulations to Aria Harper, who was elected by her fellow students as the Local School Council student representative for the 2025-2026 school year! She will begin serving on our LSC after the July 2025 Board Meeting. We look forward to Aria's contributions and representation of the student body.

This week, our students are participating in the Tubman Bulldog Buddies Random Acts of Kindness Week Challenge. Students will have the opportunity to perform small acts of kindness that will make a big difference in our school community.

On Friday, we’re thrilled to welcome you to our Winter Arts Integration Showcase! This event will feature performances by our talented 1st, 5th, and 7th grade students, as well as special presentations from Music House and our Tubman Guitar program. We can’t wait to see the incredible creativity on display.

We appreciate your continued partnership in making Tubman a wonderful place for our students to learn and grow.

In Partnership,

Principal Hammaker
